Liverpool hit hurdle in pursuit of Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram
Liverpool FC’s transfer pursuits have hit a stumbling block in their alleged interest in Khephren Thuram from OGC Nice. Apparently, initial talks between the two parties have been “fundamentally negative,” presenting a challenge for Liverpool in their bid to secure the talented 22-year-old midfielder.
According to Get French Football News via ECHO, Liverpool made their interest in Khephren Thuram clear, and the player remained impressed by the club’s pitch during two initial meetings. However, negotiations have faltered due to Nice’s lack of meaningful engagement thus far.
It appears that the French club is showing little to no interest in parting with Thuram unless the player himself explicitly expresses a desire to leave.
This development poses a significant obstacle for Liverpool as they seek to reinforce their midfield options. Thuram’s dynamic playing style and versatility make him an attractive target for Jurgen Klopp’s side, but Nice’s reluctance to engage in negotiations complicates matters.
Thuram deal difficult for the Reds
Time will tell whether Thuram will actively pursue a move away from Nice or if the club’s stance will change in response to his potential desire to leave. If Thuram expresses a strong desire to join Liverpool, it could potentially trigger more meaningful discussions between the two clubs.
As the transfer window progresses, Liverpool may certainly need to explore alternative midfield targets should their pursuit of Thuram prove unsuccessful.
Liverpool fans will closely monitor the situation, hopeful that the club can overcome the challenges in negotiations and secure the services of a promising talent like Thuram.
However, they understand that transfer dealings can be complex and that alternatives may need to be considered should the initial pursuit fall through.
